	Nestor (Birds) - LoveToKnow 1911
		The Phillip-Island Nestor may be distinguished from both of the New-Zealand species by its somewhat smaller size, orange throat, straw-coloured breast, and the generally lighter shade of its tints.
		The position of the genus Nestor in the order Psittaci must be regarded as uncertain, but it is now usually placed in the sub-family Nestorinae of the Trichoglossidae (see Parrot).

	FOREIGN PERIODICAL LITERATURE
		The Platycercinae are considered "primitive," having given rise to the Loriinae, early stock of which perhaps gave rise to the Nestorinae.
		Melopsittacus and Pezoporus are placed in the Platycercinae, the Psittaculirostrinae is erected for Psittaculirostris (regarded as intermediate between platycercines and lories), and Lathamus is placed in the Loriinae.
		The linear order, the author suggests, namely Platycercinae, Psittaculirostrinae, Nestorinae, Loriinae, seems odd--his phylogenetic views instead suggest Platycercinae, Psit- taculirostrinae, Loriinae, Nestorinae.--L.L.S.
